I don't think any ET user has an account with Quadriga and yet there are 3 separate threads I can see on the subject. I think there are more.
Surprised Magna has not shut these down...
There are more than 1 about crypto's, or even bitcoin too.
It is not just about Quadriga, it is about crypto's in general. It shows what risks you have in reality. The so called security is not working, neither is there any improvement. There are more and more scandals all the time. And the difference with fiat money is that with fiat money people get there money back. Crypto's are lost forever, thanks to the so important anonimity. The anonimity results in a garanteed robbery without any proof of guilt for the criminals. Almost the perfect crime.
115,000 clients lost in total about $150 million, so average less than 3.5 btc a person. The stupid herd got victim again. The joe averages without a brain; not the whales.
Crypto's attract criminals; crypto's sounds almost like "corruptos":
"Per legal documents and the press release, with the supposed death of Cotten, Quadriga’s remaining staff have effectively lost access to 26,500 BTC, 11,000 Bitcoin Cash, 11,000 Bitcoin SV, 35,000 Bitcoin Gold, 200,000 Litecoin, and 430,000 Ethereum. All this amounts to a nominal fiat value of 150 million U.S. dollars. Yet, a leading crypto researcher claims that the exchange
never had access to such a pool of funds, and is lying through its own teeth."
